No, reader view uses the about:reader (about:reader?url=%s) page and extension do not work on about: pages. If you only want to modify the appearance then you can use CSS code in userContent.css (not userChrome.css). 

@-moz-document url-prefix(about:reader){
 /* your CSS rules */
}

More info about userContent.css and userChrome.css in case you are not familiar: *https://www.userchrome.org/what-is-userchrome-css.html
